The search is on for a treatment for COVID-19. One of the most talked about is the use of hydroxychloroquine, a drug used to treat malaria, lupus, and arthritis. The reports on the benefits of hydroxychloroquine have been mixed – and there’s been a lot of pushback to using drugs like these. Personally, I’m open...

No one ever wants to break a bone. But if there’s a bone you especially don’t want to break, it’s your hip. Seniors who break a hip have up to a 58 percent chance of dying within the year. Those aren’t good odds. Fortunately, there’s one common nutrient that can help seniors recover faster when...

I wish I could tell you there was a sure-fire way to make sure you never get coronavirus. Unfortunately, short of never leaving the house again, there isn’t. But your best bet for avoiding ANY sickness is to boost your body’s first line of defense: your immune system. Lots of us spend time worrying about...

I often focus on what TO do in order to get healthy or avoid disease. Today I’m going to give you a tip for what NOT to do… especially if you’re suffering from (or want to avoid) rheumatoid arthritis. A recent study shows that ONE THING could increase your risk of rheumatoid arthritis by 164%....

I write a lot about steps you can take to lower your risk of cancer. But if you already have cancer, I know you’re focused on something else: survival. Today, I want to tell you about something that can help you do both. I’m talking about a humble vitamin that can help keep you cancer-free…...

These are stressful times, and it’s understandable to be worried about your health and about the future. But if you’re not careful, worrying about things like coronavirus could turn into the reality of heart disease. That’s because stress is a major risk factor for heart disease. The good news is that there’s a simple, drug-free...

When you’re faced with an invisible threat like COVID-19, it’s easy to feel helpless. I get it. Even those once-a-week trips to the grocery store can leave you paranoid about what you’re coming in contact with—and what you’re bringing home with you. But you’re not helpless against this virus. There’s one simple step you can...

There’s been an explosion of hypertension cases in the U.S. Literally overnight, the number of Americans with high blood pressure skyrocketed from 72 million to 103 million. But before you let your doctor put you on blood pressure meds for the rest of your life, you need to read this. Because there’s something that mainstream...

No one is immune to coronavirus. We’ve learned that over the past few months — there are plenty of younger and older folks who have been affected. But certain people have a higher risk of contracting it than others. As the weeks and months tick by and more people become infected, researchers have been able...

While some types of cancer are on the decline, liver cancer rates have TRIPLED in the past 40 years. It’s estimated that last year alone, over 42,000 people were diagnosed with cancer that starts in the liver… and over 31,000 of those individuals died. Those aren’t good odds. The key to reversing this trend is...

Despite the new drugs, pink ribbons, and fundraisers, we’re still a long way away from winning the war on cancer. And to me, one of the most frustrating things about this dreaded disease is that we’re doing it to ourselves. Most cancer cases are environmental—meaning there are specific factors we’re putting in, on, or around...

The coronavirus pandemic has brought out a lot of good in people. Unfortunately, it’s brought a lot of scammers out of the woodwork, too. There are folks online promoting all sorts of bogus cures and phony “virus killers.” I can’t believe some of the stuff I’m seeing out there… So I decided to put together...

I keep hearing about all of the progress we’re making against diabetes. There are 1.5 million Americans being diagnosed with the disease every year — that’s like the populations of San Francisco and Boston COMBINED. That doesn’t feel like great progress to me. We don’t need new diabetes drugs — we have plenty of them....

Coronavirus is in the news every minute of every day. And let’s face it — some of that news has been downright confusing. There are many people who have suffered horribly… and even died… from the virus. And there are other folks who hardly developed symptoms at all. That may sound odd — but it’s...

Diabetes can be a maddening disease. You try to eat healthy… you take your prescription drugs… and you still might not get your blood sugar numbers where you want them. And that’s when you start to wonder… are we attacking this disease the wrong way? Well, we might be. There’s an odd gut issue that...

This coronavirus pandemic is never far from any of our thoughts. My heart breaks for all of the people around the world who are fighting for their lives right now. I truly hope you and the people you love are safe. Lately, I’ve been spending a lot of time thinking about the folks who don’t...

I can tell people until I’m blue in the face to cut back on carbs and sugar… but I may as well be telling them to walk on water. In other words… it would take a miracle. But I’ve got great news today. Because researchers have found a way to have your cake and eat...

Heart failure is nothing to mess around with. In addition to being deadlier than cancer, it’s also the number one reason people over 65 are hospitalized. In fact, more people in this age group are hospitalized for heart failure than for all forms of cancer—combined. It’s an enormous problem…but there could be a surprisingly simple...

I can’t say this enough… Your first and main defense against any kind of illness is your immune system. It was designed to detect harmful objects (bacteria, pathogens, viruses, and the like), mount an all-out attack on them, and kill or remove them from your body. It’s no coincidence that people with compromised immune systems...

Do you remember the candy called Now and Later? That’s kind of like your health. What you do NOW will impact how you live LATER. And if you’d like to avoid serious diseases like hypertension, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases later in life, there’s something you need to start doing right now. The sooner the better....
